Questionwhat is,if any the max distance you can run a cable from the antenna to the t.v.
Asked 9 years ago by plum.
- Answer You are only limited by the output of the amplifier you use. This is what an amplifier does. It does not get you receive extra signal, instead it ensures your tv receives the same signal as your antenna reiceves. As signals travel down any length of wire they loose strength. I have a clearstream c1 antenna (no amplifier) hooked into a rca preamplifier (17dbm gain) and run 100 ft of coxial just fine. If you use RG6 coxial, you will loose around 4-6db of signal per 100ft. So you need an amplifier over 6db. Also note that the tuner in your TV has a loss of around 8db. A two way splitter is a loss of 3.5db. So if you have a 2- way splitter and 100ft of cord, you will need an amplifier with a gain of around 17.5 db.

QuestionWhat is the difference between the Mohu Air 60 and the Mohu Sky 60?
Asked 9 years ago by Chris.
- Answer The only difference between the Air 60 and the Sky 60 is that the Air 60 is made exclusively for Best Buy. That's also why the shape of the antenna head looks different. The performance of the antennas should be exactly the same.

QuestionHow many channels will I be able to receive?I am wanting to replace my cable provider. I want to know how many channels I'll be able to receive ?
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer It varies for every address. You can purchase a 60 mile antenna but if you live in an area with lots of hills and/or mountains your signal could be blocked partially or completely! We suggest that you google "what channels will I get with an antenna" and look for an address scan tool that will allow you to put your COMPLETE address in for analysis. Just because the box says XX mile range it is dependant on the line of sight to the towers, distance from the towers and placement of the antenna itself.

QuestionWhen mounted outdoors, does the Mohu-Air 60 require an exterior electrical outlet?
Asked 8 years ago by JimH.
- Answer Not necessarily. The amplifier requires a USB connection or a connection to a regular power outlet. I mounted the antenna outside and connected the amplifier in the junction box where all the cables connect inside the master bedroom. The junction box inside the home already had a power outlet so it was a easy connect. I did not find that the amplifier was necessarily needed as the mounting of the antenna and pointing direction to the transmission towers really matter the most. I live 62 miles from the transmission towers in Los Angeles and I was able to pickup 131 local channels with and without the amplifier. No more ridiculous charges for free channels from the cable company. I tried three different antenna's before I found the one that worked best. The Mohu-Air 60 without question was the best antenna.

QuestionHow to you connect this antenna to multiple TV's (4 or 5)?How to you connect this antenna to multiple TV's (4 or 5)?
Asked 9 years ago by Steve.
- Answer If your home has an existing coaxial network you can locate the hub, connect the Sky 60 and that will send signals to the other coax ports in your home. If your home is not "cable ready" you can purchase a splitter that will allow you to connect the Sky. Using the home's coaxial network is by far the easiest way if that is an option for you.

QuestionWill a radiant barrier in the attic not allow me to pick up the channels? It there a way to add an additional amplifier to boost the signal if longer coax is needed?
Asked 8 years ago by Houston.
- Answer If a radiant barrier is present you would need to mount the antenna on the roof to get up and over that blockage. As long as you do not add more than an additional 50 feet of coaxial to the length that comes with the Air 60 you would not need additional amplification. If you find that you do you can add one amplifier to each television to boost the signal.

QuestionIs there difference between Mohu Sky models MH110585 and MH110601? Also do storming weather, snow or windy condition affect signal strength and reception?
Asked 9 years ago by Mike.
- Answer There is no difference between the two antennas other than the product number. Different numbers are assigned for different retailers but the antennas are the same. Yes weather can affect over the air transmission similar to satellite reception. Reception can sometimes fade in and out and you may experience pixilation but mostly during very severe weather. It's all about the signals getting disrupted as they are traveling from the towers to your antenna.

QuestionCan I use the Satellite dish wiring for the outdoor antenna?
Asked 7 years ago by Fitz.
- Answer Sure! Just inspect the wires and make sure they are in good condition. If the installer did a professional job, you should be good to go. Be careful adding additional spliters as you decrease the antennas signal.

QuestionI've used two high-end Terks, both of which don't work that well and require frequent readjustment. For a few years I've been using Mohu's amplified Leaf, and it's been the best thing I've used so far. Wondering if the Air would work even better (indoors)
Asked 9 years ago by Wolf.
- Answer It totally depends on the signals that are available in your area. If your signals are all about the same distance from you adding the Air wouldn't pull in more stations. However if there are signals out of range (50 mile) of the Leaf then the Air (60 mile) may pull in a few more stations for you. Google "what channels are available in my area" and look for a site tool that will allow you to enter in your complete address. If there are stations between 50 - 60 miles from your address that you are not getting with the 50 mile range antenna a 60 mile range antenna may pull them in for you.

QuestionDO I NEED TO MOVE THE ANTENNA AROUND TO GET BEST RECEPITION ??

- Answer Yes, it is very sensitive with the direction, if the TV signal is from different TV tower, you really have to adjust the antenna direction. It is not convenient.

QuestionWill I be able to receive local channels without cable?
Asked 8 years ago by Joe.
- Answer We had to use a different antenna as Mohu did not work for us. Nothing against Mohu - they are very highly rated. Each installation is different. Eventually we used a Clear Stream antenna. We receive local channels: ABC, NBC, CW, Fox, and each networks offshoots like Grit, Comet, etc. We are not able to get CBS. Also, I feel like the reception may be different in cooler weather possibly due to air waves.

QuestionCan the Mohu-Air 60 be mounted indoors (no attic)?
Asked 9 years ago by Christi.
- Answer Their website indicates that it can but I didn't want to climb up in there to try it. I mounted it on the side of the house about 20' above ground. (my main cable was on the side of house so the attic wouldn't have been convenient anyway)
